(Why do you think I and even a few others left the group early on?) @mmdvv: your comments on Prashant Bhushan's open letter to Kejriwal ?”

Earlier Bhushan wrote a letter, where he made point to point rebuttal of Kejriwal's charge at National Council (NC) meeting . Bhushan accused AAP chief of making "false and inflammatory" allegations against him, his father Shanti Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav at the meeting.

On Tuesday, party had sacked dissident leader Yogendra Yadav as chief spokesperson of the party and also removed rebel leaders Prashant Bhushan, Anand Kumar as spokespersons while announcing a new 20-member panel packed with Arvind Kejriwal loyalists to interact with the media.

The removal of Yadav, Bhushan and Kumar came four days after they were expelled as National Executive members during the partys National Council meeting after being accused of indulging in anti-party activities. Bhushan was on Sunday removed as the chief of partys disciplinary committee.

Bhushan and Yadav were sacked from the partys Political Affairs Committee of the party on March 4.
